I don't need another hobby, but...

I keep seeing these absolutely beautiful, brightly colored and blemish free, peppers in grocery stores. One in particular is a little clear plastic bag with bright green, yellow, and red pepper, very large and well formed. I'm sure many of you have seen them too and know exactly what I am talking about. What are the name of these?

I see a lot of peppers still left over at some of the stores and nurserys, and since I have a few more open beds I'm thinking about planting some peppers. Can any of you here recommend some good (sweet) bell peppers? I'd really like to grow some as big, blemish free, and as good tasting as the ones I see in the fresh produce section of these stores like I described.

Can someone give me a thumbnail primer on late season peppers?

Thanks!
